Do ya think Brendan Rodgers was more interested in TED talks and power point presentations, rather than actual football?

How charismatic is the big grinning German new manager dude on a scale of 1-19, do ya reckon?

Yass, TT...I was substantially impressed by the talking of the big, normal Teutonic lad from the Black Forest...I am thinking of abandoning Stoke City for Liverpool, even though I have held grudges against Liverpool since way back when, since the day they bought Dalglish with the Keegan money.

By heck Vel - you can't abandon Stoke for a Teutonic!

So, you see, Tommy, I need advice - why should I support Stoke when the sheer force of Klopp's personality and grin is exerting MASSIVE  gravitational force, drawing me to the 5-time Euro Champs? WHY, Tommy, WHY??

With the winter drawing close, I now have to ponder whether to buy STOKE or LIVERPOOL football socks for extra leg-warmth, which I require, as I live about 800 feet above sea level.

Which club should benefit from my sock expenditure...?

THE MIGHTY POTTERS!, of course!

We need all the sock-buyers we can get!

OK then, THAT is settled, Tommy Toes...I see that the village of FLASH in Staffordshire is engaged in an on-going dispute with Timillmatmonmunckley in Dumfries and Galloway as to which location is higher-up, sea-level-wise...FLASH being an early centre of Wesleyanism...

I hear that the SNP are providing free trampolines to the Timillmatmonmunckley folks so that they can leap aboot and generally be that much higher - on a minute by minute basis - than the FLASH Englanders.

FLASH, is very high up, Vel - and I recall it being stated as the highest village in the UK previously.

It's very, very cold up there though - you'd need two pairs of Klopp socks up there if you changed allegiance!

Okay Vel.

While you're at it, have a think about this:

When do you think the tide will turn again in football apparel?

Just watching the England game now and they're all in body-con tops to show off their muscles, which is wasted on bragging rights to people viewing on tv, as they're just a white blob on the screen.

Yet, their thighs, which would be so visible from afar behind the gogglebox, are ensconced in shorts Eric Morecombe would have been proud of, and all you can see is their knees above their socks (Mighty Potters' socks, I reckon!).

These 'Macho Men' are really missing a trick in trying to flaunt their muscles.

Who will ever forget Stuart Pearce's thighs, even though he missed his pen?
No one would recall his mammaries!

Yass, Neworder - I'm very loyal - I'll stick with Stoke for another few weeks anyway...btw, there is an absence of puns regarding Klopp / Kop...

The old strips were great and modern strips are rubbish, what else can you say? Sad I have a nice collection of jockey silks and football shirts - my best shirt is a Barcelona one signed by Stoichkov...Mervyn Stoichkov, who does abstract pavement art in Sauchiehall Street.
